Problem with zerglings is that they dumbasslike move around the opponent instead of attacking something they could actually hit. Even 24/7 korean progamers cant micro that properly

With regards to everyone saying Zerg need to just play more and not complain, I have to disagree. If so many of these high ranking Zergs who are better and more skilled/knowledgeable than most everyone are all playing tons of games and coming to the same conclusion, then it probably isn't them just being lazy or not creative, there seems to be an inherent problem with the race. Don't you think that each of these lifetime Zerg players is trying as hard as they can to be the one to figure out the strategies that would overcome the seeming impossible odds and dominate the ladder? I'm sure every single one of them would choose that over switching races solely to stay competitive.

So many people that hate on Blizzard here have clearly no idea at all what software development is. Give them a year, then come back and whine, if it's still as bad as now, regarding the balance.

You ask why they don't patch more drastically?

If they want to balance the game, they should not risk patches that break the game in another way when they are supposed to fix something. In a game with so many variables like SC, you just can't fix A LOT OF THINGS at once, you have to fix it little by little, even if it means continued imbalance.

And regarding all those people crying about the "time" it takes Blizzard to patch:

This is software development. 2 month time is nothing, even for a game patch. Stop complaining about things you don't even have the slightest knowledge about. You can argue that Blizzard shouldn't aim for an expansion already, or that they were too eager to bring the game out, but writing that you're "disappointed at Blizzard because they don't care" 2 months after release just shows that you don't have any idea how software development works.

(also, people still comparing SC2 to SC:BW in balance terms, this is just ridiculous..)

PrinceXizor, I watch your stream often and am a fan of your play, but TBH a lot of the Ts you play don't seem to be very good. I sincerely hope that your play style continues to be viable as you face stronger and smarter Ts, but I'm not sure that it will.

A T3 consume upgrade for Infestors is an interesting idea, as it would allow continued Infestor use while leaving the player with more gas for an army. One thing to note though is Infestor spells are cheaper than defiler spells, so the energy gained from consume would have to be adjusted accordingly. Another idea would be to increase Infestor energy regen while burrowed.

I would think my post history would give it away, but damn, I think that's sort of a testament to the state of balance discussions that people can actually believe someone would make that post unironically.

well shit, it sucks some of your role model players are switching race but we have to understand that this is their profession. if they can make more money AND have more fun with another race than we have to support their decision.. but ideally... blizzard finds some magical fix and really helps out with this problem..

The problem is that blizzard moves slower than evolution so the significant changes that are needed wont come for a long time.

Blizzard has put themselves in a pretty iffy position. They can't make changes too quickly, as knee-jerk fixes tend to have poor results in the long run. At the same time, going too slowly has the potential to damage the competitive player-base, and by extension, the spectator base.


That's the trouble. I just wish they had made the beta longer, it seemed rushed to me. Game was nowhere near balanced on release. Now it's too late to try out big changes so we have just have to sit tight and hope they eventually get it right.

i agree with this statement
make fungal growth cost 150 energy, give an upgradeable consume ability because paying 150 gas for 1 fungal growth just isnt worth it when medivacs can just regen. fungal is only used for 1) stalling mechanism or 2) ensnare bio to surround but after than you have to wait 120 seconds to regenerate energy making your infestor literally worthless in 90% of typical game scenarios

Nobody still has a clue about learning curves of the races. It's hard enough to find balance in RTS but to control the learning curves of 3 different games (races) this complicated to be similar is pretty much impossible. How hard is basic control for tank/marauder, now compare it to how hard it is to control the correct counter ling/infestor. Clearly Zerg needs more time to reach its max than Terran does.

That and every Zerg out there still doesn't creep properly. You see top level Zergs not getting multiple tumors at all times in the game, not getting overlord speed. Why complain about unit strength when you aren't getting the number one upgrade for your units (creep) in the whole game. This is just puzzling.

There may or may not be balance issues, but let's start with these things. It's like Terrans forgetting concussive shells and siege mode every game they play. Creep spread is simply a lot harder to pull off than just pressing an upgrade button, but that brings us back to not knowing the learning curves of each race, which is not the same as imbalance.
